Some great historic images, the Steelers have done a good job over the years adjusting to Free Agency and salary cap from the days where the draft was 90% to replenish young talent.

We're spoiled with some rich football history, the Chief and sons put together great teams where a lot of those founding principals are still alive today.

Great article, hopefully we get an updated version soon.
Bradshaw's 73 yard TD to Stallworth in XIV is still the first image that comes to mind when this subject comes up.

When I lived south of Cleveland in the 70s Hoolihan and Big Chuck then it was Big Chuck and Lil John in Cleveland, Ohio was show on Friday nights 11:30 that showed B movies and had comedy skits during commercials.

Man, that 70s team was just awesome. What an incredible group of talent put together. Even the non-HOF players were fantastic.... Bleir....Cunnigham....Wagner. Too many to list. To me Lambert is Steelers D personified....I wish they could still play like that.
So many great plays too in our SBs. Steelers have some of the greatest in SB history....Parkers run...Harrison...Stallworth to the post 2x over his head...Swann's Catch...Holmes tip toeing the line for the winner.

A couple quarterbacks weren't too bad either!

This is not a called play when talking about Great Plays. However what Steeler fan can deny the GREATNESS here?

Yep I didn't mean to exclude anyone it's just hard to write out all that were on those teams.

Oh yeah, Lambert at his best. I saw him one time after his career talking about this and he was saying the ref told him he was out of the game, and he said something like..you can't kick me out it's the SB. He said the ref told him something like: then you behave yourself.
